B Rs.20 per hour Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C Rs.21 per hour Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D Rs.10.5 per hour Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E Rs.12 per hour Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Direct labor efficiency variance = (AH × SR) – (SH × SR) Rs.2,000 = Rs.42,000 – (2,000 × SR) Rs.2,000 – Rs.42,000 = -2,000SR -Rs.40,000 = -2,000SR SR = Rs.40,000/2,000 SR = Rs.20 per hour
